These were the princes of the tribes. These are they who were over those who were counted; ³and they brought their offering before Jehovah, six covered wagons and twelve oxen; a wagon for every two of the princes, and for each one an ox. They presented them before the tabernacle. ⁴Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, ⁵"Accept these from them, that they may be used in doing the service of the Tent of Meeting; and you shall give them to the Levites, to every man according to his service."
